I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 210
"Who do you want to say that lovesickness is like, shallow people don't know." As Yan Jidao wrote in his song "Long Lovesickness. Long Lovesickness", as thin as Murong Jing, women are just a way to consolidate power and relieve desires for him. It's just a tool, even though he has some love for Qu Lingxu and wanted to accept Qu Lingxu as the princess, but now he will choose to sacrifice the other party without hesitation in exchange for greater benefits.

Therefore, in this kind of man's consciousness, he would think that all men in the world are like him.

The same scumbag insanity.

The queen is a woman, so she naturally understands the relationship more clearly than Murong Jing, so she shook her head without thinking, "Although the relationship between Leng Yuanxun and Qu Lingxu has not been exposed too much, But when a man really loves a woman, that kind of look can't deceive people, he will never turn a blind eye when Qu Lingxu's life is at stake."

Speaking of which, the queen's eyes full of scheming flashed a hint of jealousy that cannot be concealed. There is no woman who does not yearn for love, and there is no woman who does not hope that "the king's heart is like mine". It's "easy to get a priceless treasure, rare to have a lover", so she had to force herself to learn to plot and learn to be ruthless, otherwise, she and her child would definitely end up in this cannibalistic harem. Turned into a handful of bones early.

Murong Jing saw the Queen's abnormal expression, and for some reason, he belatedly thought that what the Queen said was correct, so he cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Queen Mother, I will make arrangements properly."

Qu Lingxu is just a weak woman with no power to restrain a chicken. As long as the commander of the imperial army is brought under her command, her life and death can be decided in a matter of minutes, but...a bold and exciting thought flashed in Murong Jing's mind , let his eyes shine...

Little did they know, it was this crazy thought that directly ruined his last hope of living...

Of course, this is all for later. At this time, Murong Jing didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her excellent plan. After receiving the emperor's handwritten letter, she hurried out of the palace to discuss the big plan with the nine admirals. went.

As the saying goes, "The praying mantis catches the cicada, the oriole follows behind", Murong Jing had just stepped out of the palace gate when someone passed the news to Shoukang Palace.

The Empress Dowager was reclining on the soft couch and closed the door to rest her mind. When she heard the news, she didn't even frown, she just said indifferently: "Are you going to the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion, or the Forbidden Army Commander's Mansion?"

"The prince has a lot of followers around him, and his subordinates dare not follow too closely, but judging from the direction, it should be the nine-door admiral's mansion." There are no hidden guards around the empress dowager. A small guard, but because of his inconspicuousness, Murong Jing didn't suspect him.

"The Ai family knows, don't mention today's matter to anyone." The queen mother slowly opened her cold eyes and said every word.

"My subordinate understands." The guard respectfully agreed, and silently exited the main hall of Shoukang Palace, which was rich in sandalwood fragrance.

After the palace door was closed again, Aunt Yun, who was serving the queen mother, bit her lips and said worriedly: "Master, it seems that the queen and the prince are really planning to collude with foreign ministers to force the palace. This...how can this be done?"

In order to cover up the fact of seeking power and usurping the throne, the first thing the prince will do after he ascends the throne is to clean up all those who know the truth.

The queen mother, who bears the brunt of the disaster, cannot escape the bad luck.

The Empress Dowager did not answer Aunt Yun's words immediately, but raised her hand to motion for her to help her up. She opened the window and looked at the moonlit night sky quietly. After a while, she sighed faintly and said with a wry smile: "Yunying, what do you mean? Everything, is it retribution?"

Twenty years ago, it was also such a moonlit night in autumn. She joined forces with many powerful officials to force the dying emperor to death, and used an unwarranted charge of treason to kill all the power of the prince. Get on the dragon chair.

At that time, the emperor, who was full of heroism and proudly above the Kyushu, would never have imagined that 20 years later, his own son would choose the same method to make him disappear silently in this world.

What is owed must be paid back.

Aunt Yun naturally understood what the Empress Dowager was referring to. Looking back on the past that had been buried in dust for 20 years, she still shuddered in fear, but...

"Master, how can you say such unlucky words." Aunt Yun knelt down with a plop, and continued with a sad expression: "The situation was so dangerous back then, and you came here safe and sound. The crown prince is just a brat. , how capable you are, you must not give up!"

"There are countless people who want this country, but the premise is that he can afford it." The queen mother lightly fiddled with the jade bracelet in her hand, and said casually: "Just wait and see, we will see the outcome soon."

The queen mother is a person who has experienced great storms, how could she sit still and wait for death? Since she had expected Murong Jing to do this, she naturally made preparations early, but she just stood still for the time being.

It is none other than our eldest son Leng who is regarded by the queen mother as a 'life-saving straw'. As mentioned earlier, Mrs. Huaiyang Hou is the eldest daughter of the loyal and brave Hou. Although Mrs. Hou passed away early, what is the close relationship? They were cut continuously, so when the emperor was sent back to Qinzheng Palace, she secretly sent a letter to Princess Anle, asking her to ask Mrs. Zhongyonghou to come forward and ask Leng Yuanxun to ensure the safety of the emperor at all costs .

Leng Yuanxun originally had no intention of helping Murong Jing win the throne, so he naturally accepted it. Over the years, he has placed eyeliners everywhere in the capital, and he has a lot of handles on the commander of the imperial army and several deputy commanders in his hands. After threatening and beating, several people expressed their determination to be 'loyal to the emperor and patriotic', cursing and vowing never to associate with Murong Jing.

Qing Yang happily reported his gains to Leng Yuanxun, and then couldn't help admiring: "Master, your method really works, and the subordinates just said what you asked, without adding a single word, and they really just said it." accepted."

In Qing Yang's eyes, Leng Yuanxun has always been a god-like existence, after this incident, this feeling is stronger than before.

"Everyone has something they can't let go of. If that's the case, it's nothing to make some compromise." Leng Yuanxun looked down at the palace defense map on the desk, and said indifferently.

"Then why did the master ask them to pretend to agree to His Highness the Prince's request? If they go back on their word, wouldn't it be very troublesome?" Qing Yang knew that if he asked such a question, he would be disgusted by the master for being stupid, but his curiosity was still...cough cough.

Fortunately, what Ching Yang was worried about didn't happen, Leng Yuanxun didn't even give him a supercilious look, he just said indifferently: "They won't."

Forcing the palace to rebel, this kind of high-risk political struggle, has very high requirements for "time, place and people", and the most important thing is to keep secret, so as to achieve the purpose of surprise, but now Leng Yuanxun is obviously prepared, and he is bound to intensify. Sending people to protect the emperor's safety, under such circumstances, Murong Jing's success in usurping the throne is tantamount to wishful thinking.

The possibility of success is even lower than winning the lottery, but once they fail, they will face the devastating ending of ransacking their homes and exterminating their families. Such an uneconomical deal, unless the heads of those leaders are kicked by donkeys, it is absolutely impossible to agree.

Hearing that this was the case, Qing Yang patted his forehead suddenly, then lightly snorted: "What the master said is, the poor prince, you are still dreaming of the spring and autumn dream of being an emperor."

"Dreams are always necessary, and they can't be realized anyway." Leng Yuanxun used a catchphrase learned from Qu Lingxu, and then solemnly ordered: "Let Ling Xiao and the others be vigilant at all times, and never allow Murong Jing to approach Xu Within a radius of two meters, understand?"

After Murong Jing successfully wins over Commander Chen, he will definitely ask the other party to take him to the Qinzheng Palace to kill the emperor. At that time, he will definitely meet Qu Lingxu who is guarding the emperor. He must absolutely guarantee Qu Lingxu's safety .

"Master, don't worry, Ling Xiao and others will definitely protect the princess." Qing Yang solemnly agreed.

Actually, from his point of view, with Qu Lingxu's incomparably intelligent temperament, if he were to match up with Murong Jing, only Murong Jing would be at a disadvantage, so there was no need to worry.

"Go make arrangements."

"Yes."

When Qing Yang left Leng Yuanxun's study, Murong Jing and the nine admirals also took an inconspicuous sedan chair and came to the back door of Chen Wu's mansion, the commander of the imperial army.

The nine-door admiral raised his hand and lifted the car curtain, and said softly, "Go and knock on the door."

"Yes."

Because of Leng Yuanxun's order in advance, Chen Wu was not surprised by Murong Jing's arrival. After he calmed down and made sure that there were no flaws, he followed his family to the back door and personally welcomed Murong Jing and the nine admirals in. Fuchu.

"I don't know that His Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Bai are here, but I have lost my way to welcome you. Please forgive me." Chen Wu took the tea brought by the maid and served it in front of Murong Jing and the nine admirals.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always admired Mr. Chen, but he has always been busy with official duties and has no time to move around." The admiral of the Nine Gates Bai Chongli glanced at Chen Wu and said with a faint smile.

"Thanks to His Highness the Crown Prince's appreciation, I am very grateful." Chen Wu once again bowed deeply to Murong Jing, as if infinitely frightened, and said: "If His Highness the Crown Prince has any orders, just send Xuan Weichen to the East Palace directly. How can I work?" The body of a thousand gold comes to the humble house."

"This is His Highness the Crown Prince's special favor to Mr. Chen." Bai Chongli turned the teacup casually, and said with a half-smile, "Don't Mr. Chen feel that this place is not quiet enough?"

Chen Wu is not a stupid person, how could he not understand the hidden meaning in his words, he immediately said: "There is no need to serve here, everyone go down."

"Yes." Qi Qi, the maid who brought tea and snacks, gave a blessing and bowed back.
